“A toxic mix” – Makhosi Khoza blasts David Mabuza and Ace Magashule

The former ANC MP has had her say on the divided top six the ANC have been left with

Ex-ANC Member and founder of the ADEC (African Democratic Change) movement Makhosi Khoza has given us her opinion on the ANC top six. Spoiler alert: She is not regretting her exit from the party earlier this year.

Mabuza and Magashule pose ‘toxic’ risk to ANC

If the party are looking for a genuine change, then they’ve got off to a rocky start. Khoza expressed her doubts over the organisation’s ability to move forward, and feared that their presence as part of Cyril’s team would leave him hamstrung. Here’s what she said in a post shared to Facebook:

“I have no regrets. What change could Cyril Ramaphosa bring when surrounded by David Mabuza as Deputy President, and Ace Magashule as his Secretary General? This is a toxic mix.”

“We must focus on building our structures on the ground (up ADEC). We need the younger generation and women. Our problem is corruption that remains in the current ANC arrangement. Women deserve a better deal than Jessie Duarte as a sole female on the top six.”

“Change! Change! Real change. That is what South Africa is yearning for.”

Makhosi Khoza spent most her last year in the ANC speaking out about the corruption that had engulfed the party. She refused to remain silent, and stayed resilient in the face of death threats from pro-Zuma supporters.
